When rays are diverging from a source of light, they are spreading out as they travel, then they are divergent rays. Eg: Rays that are coming out of a common electric bulb, rays that are coming out of a concave lens and rays that are coming reflected from a convex mirror. When rays are converging towards a point as they travel forward, then they are convergent rays or beam. Eg: Rays that are coming out of a convex lens and rays that are reflected from a concave mirror. read less
